What a morning at Piedmont Park here in Atlanta! I


Jul 30, 2016, 2:02 PM

try to get there early this time of year because of the heat. First person I see as I cross 10th street to enter the park is a lady jogging. She said Go Clemson when she saw our shirts. She said she was going to the BC game because it is on a Friday and she is going to run in a 5k in Boston the next day. She happened to mention that she was a freshman in 1981, the national championship season (oh how I wish I was having to say the first national championship season, so close). Anyway, when she said that, I said that I was a freshman in 1981.

A couple of hours later, I am walking and three guys come jogging up from behind. I was wearing a shirt that said 2015 Capital One Orange Bowl Champions with big Clemson and Oklahoma helmets on the back with 37 under the Clemson helmet and 17 under the Oklahoma helmet. One of the guys asks if I was a Clemson fan and I said yes. He pulls off a purple and orange weave bracelet with a tiger paw in the middle of it and says, here take this. He gave it to me and said that he and the two guys he was running with make them and they have a company called GlassU and said I should go to GlassU.com. I went there and thought I would see all sorts of stuff, but mainly I see phone wallets and sunglasses.

There is a small organic farmers market in the park on Saturday mornings and sometimes I look around sometimes I don't. Well, we decided we'd like to buy some peaches and maybe some honey. They were all organic. Next thing you know, I am talking with another Clemson grad. What a small world it is.

out there with a Clemson running hat as well this morning. I live about 3/4 of a mile from there. I work at a local running store....I've noticed quite an increase in Clemson people in the running community the last few years.
